On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to present to you the financial statements of UBL for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Performance Highlights
Unconsolidated Profit after Tax for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 stands at Rs 5.2 billion, a growth of 32% over the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Net interest margin at 5.1% remains under pressure due to the increase in the minimum rate payable on savings accounts. Active recovery efforts and diligent portfolio management have resulted in a further 3% reduction in gross NPLs and a 58% reduction in the provision charge compared to Q113.
Financial Highlights Overall performance For the quarter ended March 31, 2014, UBL has achieved a profit after tax of Rs 5.2 billion. This is 32% higher than the corresponding period last year and translates into earnings per share of Rs. 4.26 (March 2013: Rs. 3.23).
For the same period, UBLs profit before tax is Rs 7.8 billion, which is 33% higher than the corresponding period last year. This has been achieved through consistent growth in the balance sheet, enhancement in non-markup based income and contained provisions. On a consolidated basis, UBL achieved a profit after tax of Rs 5.5 billion, an increase of 12% over the first quarter of 2013.
Net Interest Income Net Interest Income has grown by 12% from Rs 8.8 billion in Q113 to Rs 9.8 billion in Q114 as the average balance sheet grew by 15% and interest rates increased by 100 bps during the last quarter of 2013. Margins however, remain impacted by the linking of the minimum savings rate to repo rates. Despite the higher rate environment and a 170 bps increase in the savings rate as a result of various regulatory changes over the last year, growth in the cost of domestic deposits was contained to 59 bps in comparison to Q113, through a consistent and stable growth in core deposits.
2 Non-Interest Income Non-interest income maintains its contribution as a core revenue component and has posted strong YoY growth of 32% in Q114 to reach Rs 5.1 billion. Fees and Commissions remained the dominant revenue source and increased by 15% to Rs 2.7 billion. These continued to be driven by growth in revenues from market leading positions in Home remittances and Omni, along with enhanced earnings on trade flows. Treasury and Capital Markets activity continued to post strong results with double digit growth across all business lines. Timely leveraging of opportunities in a volatile market resulted in a 66% increase in foreign exchange income over the previous year, while income from investments in the growing equity markets resulted in a 66% increase, through capital gains and dividends.
Provisions and loan losses
The focus towards improving asset quality through active restructuring and recovery efforts continues to provide good results as non-performing loans have further decreased by 3% in 2014, following the 8% reduction in 2013. The aggregate provisions for the first quarter of 2014 are 58% lower than the corresponding period last year driven by recoveries in both the domestic and international businesses. The Bank remains well reserved with the coverage ratio improving from 84% in December 2013 to 86% in March 2014. Cost management Administrative expenses of Rs 6.7 billion are 8% higher than the corresponding period last year, but have reduced by 2% over the prior quarter. Despite business and volume growth, the increase in administrative expenses has been contained to below inflation levels. The overall cost to income ratio has improved to 45% in Q114 in comparison to 49% in Q113. Balance Sheet The overall balance sheet grew by 2% in the first quarter of 2014. The Banks focus on building the stable core deposit base of the Bank is yielding good results as these increased by 4%, well ahead of market growth. The mobilization of low cost deposits has gathered momentum with average low cost deposits increasing by 18% over the corresponding quarter of last year. Advances reduced from Rs 391 billion in December 2013 to Rs 377 billion as a result of repayments of seasonal financing, and the ADR improved further to 48%. Capital Ratios The Tier 1 Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) of the Bank was 9.8 % as at March 31, 2014, marginally lower than 10.0% as at December 31, 2013, primarily as a result of the 2013 Final dividend payout in the current quarter. The overall CAR of the Bank remains strong at 12.8%, comfortably above minimum required levels.
3 The Board of Directors of UBL declared an interim dividend of 25% (Rs 2.5 per share) in their meeting in Islamabad on 18 April 2014, along with the results for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Key Developments Macroeconomic performance Pakistans macroeconomic indicators have shown improvement across all fronts. Inflation has remained under control in the 9M FY 14 averaging 8.6% and Large Scale Manufacturing has grown by 6.1% during 7M FY14. The World Bank has recently revised their forecast for GDP growth upwards to 4%. The fiscal deficit has been contained with provisional estimates of 3.1% of GDP during the first nine months of the fiscal year. Most importantly, this year has seen a significant improvement in the foreign exchange reserves position and a consequent appreciation of the Rupee. While these are all encouraging developments, the recovery is still nascent and sustained policy efforts are critical to build on the positive economic climate. The countrys balance of payment position, which had remained precarious during most of 2013, has seen a significant turnaround. The receipt of foreign assistance of US$ 1.5 billion during the quarter, along with the release of Coalition Support Fund (CSF) proceeds have provided a significant boost to the previously fast depleting reserves position which strengthened to above US$ 5 billion by the end of March 2014. This sizeable inflow and the restored market confidence have led to a 6.5% appreciation in the Rupee during the first quarter of 2014. The trade deficit for 9M FY14 has narrowed by 5.5% in comparison to 9M FY13, as exports have increased by 6.1%, while import growth has been contained to 0.9%. However, due to relatively lower proceeds from the CSF this year, the current account witnessed a higher deficit of US$ 2 billion as against US$ 831 million during the same period last year. Workers remittances continued to grow and provide strong support to the external account, increasing by 11.9% during 9M FY14 to reach US$ 11.6 billion. Although fiscal imbalances remain structural and concerning, the newly elected government is targeting a reduced budget deficit of 5.8% for FY14 in comparison to the 8.0% in FY13. This is being addressed with measures to lower PSDP spending along with higher tax and non-tax revenue collection. FBRs tax collection has improved with a 16% growth during the first nine months of FY14, though this may still not be sufficient to meet even the revised revenue collection target of PKR 2,345 billion. In line with performance targets required under the Extended Fund Facility with the IMF, the government has recently shifted a large component of its borrowing from the SBP to banks through a record PIB auction in Q1, 2014. While this will result in an increase in debt servicing cost going forward, the size of the auction is reflective of the greatly improved market sentiment. After exhibiting a record performance in 2013 with a 49% return, the local stock market continued to perform strongly during Q1 14, with the KSE-100 index appreciating by 7.5%. Foreigners remained net
4 investors in the market during the quarter while average daily traded value increased significantly over the previous quarter. The level of inflation has remained well controlled during the 9M of FY14 averaging 8.6%, along with a gradually improving external account position and appreciation of the rupee during the first quarter of 2014. Despite improved indicators, the State Bank of Pakistan has kept the discount rate unchanged at 10.0% in 2014. It is envisaged that the key determinants for monetary policy during the year would be the sustainability of the positive developments around the external account and the continued containment of inflation. Deposits for the banking sector grew marginally by 0.6% during the first quarter of 2014, while lending growth has slowed to 0.7% after a strong performance during the previous quarter. Non-performing loans for the industry continued to decline and stood at Rs 585 billion as at December 2013 reflecting an improvement of 3.1% over the previous quarter. UBL International The positive sentiments developed in the GCC region since 2013 are gaining momentum. UAE continues to spearhead growth with upswing in the trade, services and real estate sectors and as Dubai gears up for Expo 2020. In Qatar, strong performance from sectors in addition to oil and gas has helped diversify the economy and post above expected GDP growth. UBL International plans to benefit from the improving conditions with increased emphasis on wholesale banking, and a healthy pipeline has been developed which will lead to the acquisition of quality corporate assets in the coming quarters. Cross-sell focus continued to drive higher fee income through substantial increase in trade volumes. While attaining an optimal funding profile, liquidity ratios remained strong across all territories. Going forward, the business will further strengthen its underwriting scale and quality while maintaining the focus on recoveries. UBL Omni As mobile / branchless banking continues to gain acceptance, UBL Omni remains in the forefront and, during the quarter, expanded its agent network to over 14,500 Dukaans, covering over 800 towns and cities. The instantaneous ATM / Debit cards remain popular with customers and 45,000 new accounts were opened during the quarter while transaction volumes and value increased by 12% and 11% respectively over the previous quarter. As a result of its continued leadership in G2P payments, UBL Omni is privileged to have been selected to provide aid disbursement services to over 50,000 drought and famine affected families of Thar, Sindh. In line with the objective of diversifying business lines and increasing usage of the Omni platform across industries, the business added new Cash Management clients for microfinance loan disbursements /
5 collections, school fee collections, and salary disbursement services. Internationally, the UBL Omni technology platform has been launched for UBL UK to introduce merchant based remittance services to Pakistan. This service, the first of its kind being offered by a UK regulated bank, enables walk-in customers in the UK to efficiently transfer money from an authorized retail agent to recipients in Pakistan on a real time basis. Core banking system implementation (CBS) In 2013, all conventional branches and the liability operations of Islamic Banking Branches were successfully migrated to CBS. To enhance coverage of the Islamic Banking product suite, certain Islamic asset products have also been migrated to CBS in the first quarter of 2014. The roll out of CBS within the UAE operations is currently underway and is targeted for completion in 2014. This will be followed by the implementation of CBS at other international branches. In order to streamline the loan booking process for corporate loans the roll out of an upgraded Loan Origination System (LOS) is under progress and is planned for completion in 2014. One component of this functionality has already been released to users during the first quarter of this year. In order to strengthen the operating and control environment, the development of a Fraud Risk Management system is also planned for 2014. New modules aimed at improving service quality are also under development and are expected to be launched starting from the next quarter.
Corporate Social Responsibility Building on the initiatives taken in the preceding year, UBL continued to invest over Rs 21 million in the community under its CSR mandate, by providing charitable assistance to new organizations along with contributions towards long-standing partnerships. While the majority of donations during the quarter were targeted at education, contributions were also made to organizations in the healthcare sector and to those that assist disadvantaged members of society in becoming economically self-sufficient. Looking ahead While many of the key indicators have improved, the platform provided by recent positive developments needs to be built on through structural improvements to continue strengthening the countrys macroeconomic position. The external account has shown some respite during the quarter and this will be further boosted by the recent success of Pakistans Eurobond issue which, despite a gap of several years, was heavily oversubscribed. The privatization process has now gathered momentum as three capital markets transactions have been announced for closure during the current fiscal year. Material flows are also expected in the near future from the auction of 3G licenses, further flows from multilateral donor agencies, and continued privatization of state owned entities. These will provide the needed space to undertake several reforms, most notably on the fiscal front where achieving revenue
6 targets remains a persistent challenge. Banking sector spreads are expected to remain under pressure in 2014. However, the positive macroeconomic developments are expected to lead to a revival of private sector credit which should improve the overall earnings profile. UBL will continue to invest in its core businesses to maintain its competitive advantage in technology driven innovation. Growth within the corporate and commercial segments is expected, but will be driven by asset quality considerations in order to strengthen portfolio performance. The restructuring and recovery of non-performing loans remains a priority along with aggressively pursuing settlements. The expanded branch network has started delivering to its potential and focus will now be on deepening the core deposit base along with a renewed emphasis on service quality to strengthen customer relationships.
Acknowledgements We would like to express our sincere thanks and gratitude to our customers for their patronage and to the State Bank of Pakistan and the Government of Pakistan for their continued support. We also take this opportunity to thank the shareholders for their continued trust and the staff for their dedication and commitment.

The income tax authorities have issued amended assessment orders for the tax years 2003 to 2013, and created additional tax demands of Rs.9,589 million, which have been fully paid as required under the law. The Bank has filed appeals before the various appellate forums against these amendments. Where the appellate authorities have allowed relief on certain issues, the assessing authorities have filed appeals before higher appellate forums. Where the appellate authorities have not allowed relief the Bank has filed appeals before higher appellate forums. The management of the Bank is confident that the appeals will be decided in favor of the Bank. Under the Seventh Schedule to the Ordinance, banks are allowed to claim provisions against advances up to 5% of total advances for consumer and small and medium enterprises and up to 1% of total advances for remaining advances. Amounts above these limits are allowed to be claimed in future years. The Bank has booked a deferred tax asset of Rs. 2,365 million (December 31, 2013: Rs. 2,365 million) in respect of provisions in excess of the above mentioned limits. The Bank also carries a tax asset amounting to Rs. 4,114 million (December 31, 2013: Rs. 4,114 million), representing disallowance of provisions against advances and off balance sheet obligations, for the periods prior to the applicability of the Seventh Schedule. The management, in consultation with its tax advisor, is confident that these would be allowed to the Bank at appellate levels. The tax returns for Azad Kashmir (AK) Branches have been filed upto the tax year 2013 under the provisions of section 120(1) read with section 114 of the Ordinance and in compliance with the terms of the agreement between banks and the Azad Kashmir Council in May 2005. The returns filed are considered as deemed assessment orders under the law. The tax returns for UAE have been filed upto the year ended December 31, 2013 and for other overseas branches upto the year ended December 31, 2012 under the provisions of the laws prevailing in the respective countries, and are deemed as assessed unless opened for reassessment.
